advice

hey everyone. this is ny first time posting here. my girlfriend is 38 weeks along, and things gave been mostly good. the biggest problem is that I had to get a second job delivering pizza in order to pay the bills in this economy. She gets rather depressed because we have less time together. now I got cut to part time at my regular job, requiring me to work even more nights delivering pizza. I'm worried that she is letting the financial issues stress her too much. I'm worried about what her family will think of me how that I got cut to part time. and all of this is coming about when I should be able to treat her to a great Christmas. what can I do to try making this easier on her while still bring able to pay the bills?

One thing my husband does when he's working a ton is leaving me little notes around the house for me to find. Its romantic and free. I love finding them when I'm missing him. As far as finances, I personally prefer my hubby doesn't talk about it with me bc I get stressed. Even if your strapped, don't let on. If that makes sense. Just reassure her how excited you are for the new baby and everything will be just fine. Hope that helps!

When I was expecting our ds (who is now 2), money was tight. Dh's job was stable but just not enough to cover the bills without me working and my job was the one cut b/c of the economy. I felt better when we took time to clearly talk about our budget and plan. Then I knew where we stood and let my dh take care of the rest. Make a plan of what you're going to do to try to get a full time job, and what work you're going to do in the meantime. Obviously you care a lot to make sure you're able to provide, but we do better when you tells us how you invision doing it. Just knowing how much you're trying will mean a lot. I wouldn't hold it against my dh if something happened to his job, but I would feel frustrated if he didn't let me in on how he's feeling/thinking. My family would greatly respect you for your hard work and diligence not your income. HTH.

Don't worry about her family! This is a tough patch that you guys will get through. For Christmas you can do creative fun things that will remind her of your love and commitment. A gift certificate which promises to make it up to her when things get better. A plan for a dream vacation you guys will take within 5 years. Certificates for date nights, in which you will take care of the arrangements. Your job is to remain confident that things will get better and her job is to relax and have a healthy baby.Maybe have her call creditors to make payment arrangements. You may also want to have her look into programs that can provide assistance.
